About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview: #1 I learned about the slave trade that brought my ancestors to America, and I grew up hearing about the Atlantic Ocean as a symbol of sorrow, while the Negro spirituals I sang as a child were a symbol of freedom and peace.
#2 I believe that finding peace is important because, more and more, I feel the tension rising. We are thirsty for the river and hungry for the fruit that grows around it, but all we see are floodwaters. Everything seems to tremble with chaos.
#3 Peace is a practice that we can carry out each day. It is not a passive state, but a constant flow of sacred truth. It is an invitation to breathe deep, right here in the uncertainty.
#4 Peace is a river that the soul longs for. It is a practice that is available to us right here, in everyday life.

#1
I learned about the slave trade that brought my ancestors to America, and I grew up hearing about the Atlantic Ocean as a symbol of sorrow, while the Negro spirituals I sang as a child were a symbol of freedom and peace.
#2
I believe that finding peace is important because, more and more, I feel the tension rising. We are thirsty for the river and hungry for the fruit that grows around it, but all we see are floodwaters. Everything seems to tremble with chaos.
#3
Peace is a practice that we can carry out each day. It is not a passive state, but a constant flow of sacred truth. It is an invitation to breathe deep, right here in the uncertainty.
#4
Peace is a river that the soul longs for. It is a practice that is available to us right here, in everyday life.
#5
To practice peace is to take action. To practice peace is to drill breathing holes in the church floor for those seeking freedom. It is to look for ceremonial pauses between a song’s verses.
